Gah! Note where the pic is cut off -- just below me bustline, where the fat remains somewhat under control. Pan downwards, and yikes. ... . ....

<_<:rolleyes:

Actually, I could put up a pic of my feet, as well, like you have done, Bunnie. Think I'm fairly lean-footed.....although they ARE unattractive nonetheless. Dry, somewhat gnarled...... . . ...

Yep, not puttin' one o' THOSE up. :ph34r:

Do like I do - don't put your self on your Av. Put up the dogs feet. Do you paint thier toenails?

Huh???? . . . no can do . . . JoDog knows how to tell time and JoDog knows she gets fed at 7:30 am on the weekdays so she makes sure she gets fed at 7:30 on weekends . . . and holidays . . . and spring breaks. She also gets fed at 5:00 pm . . . and reminds us if we forget. She also knows when its time for the bus to come . . . But she can't tell the toaster rattle from the squirrel on the screen rattle.

Yes, I remember this.. . . . .......but the question remains -- can your kids tell the difference? Do you rush outside and rattle the screen when you want them, and have them come running into the kitchen yelling, "Toast! Toast!" ?

It's actually Skeeter's toaster that sets JoDog off . . . Smackl's toaster doesn't cause the same problem . . . and since I'm such a good mother, I have taught both of my children the extremely difficult cooking skill of making toast . . . so no kids come running since if they want toast, they know they are making it themselves. If they hear a rattle, it is either really a squirrel, or mom's making her own toast and she doesn't share :rolleyes:

Here is another amazing JoDog talent . . . Skeeter takes peanut butter in a very small glad container in her lunch and dips pretzels in it. She rarely eats all the peanut butter. Sometimes JoDog gets the leftovers. With the TV on, or the kids playing a video game on the computer, or the water in the kitchen sink running, or all of the above. . . she can be on the 2nd floor of the house and hear (or smell?) me open the glad container and runs down to see if she is going to get a teaspoon of pb in her bowl.

For Zeus and Tinkerbell it's the can opener. They always get the 'juice' from the tuna, 'cept they can't tell the difference between a tuna can and a fruit or bean can. :unsure:

They have a mutual arrangement.....

Tinkerbell knocks things off tables or counters, and Zeus chews them up <_<

HI everybody! It's almost 80 here and sunny. I'm super happy today. I think maybe I was kinda depressed about losing my job but I'm picking back up now. Either that or my boyfriend got sick of me and started putting happy pills in my tea. Either way, I made shredded barbecue beef in the crockpot last night. With homemade ranch dressing coleslaw. And today I'm making peanut butter cookies and trying honey cake in the crockpot. We're having eggs and bacon for dinner. Maybe all that's why I'm so happy....

Jodog would have to beat ME there, I tell ya. Someone in the vicinity with peanut butter going begging? Gah, I'd be finding my way there in the midst of a tsunami, methinks... . . .... <_<:rolleyes:

Don't let her fool you . . . she's happy because she belongs to a condom of the month club where she receives some sort of different gluten-free flavoUr each month? . . . or maybe they're from a different country each month? . . . or is it a different coloUr? . . . that and the bacon.

Just read all that club business again & am still laughing. Do you have a good gluten-free sugar cookie recipe? My neighbor got a cookie cutter for her 40th in a shape that would be good for this club's snacks. :P

      Blood results

      By Wends · Posted

      Hopefully the biopsy gives a conclusive and correct diagnosis for your daughter. Im in the UK and have been in the situation a few years ago of trying to rule celiac in or out after inconclusive results. Many symptoms pointing to it including the classic symptoms and weight loss and folate and iron deficiency. You have to play a waiting game. I also had the label of IBS and likely food allergy. Genetic test showed low risk for celiac but not no risk. It sounds like the Gastroenterologist is on it and hopefully will diagnose what it is correctly. Food hypersensitivity (allergy) can also cause similar symptoms and inflammation as well as mimicking IBS. Milk / dairy and wheat (cereal grains) being the biggest culprits. The “oesophagitis” and “gastritis” you mentioned can be caused by another gastrointestinal disorder called “eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders”. These are named depending on which part of the gastrointestinal tract is affected. For example eosinophilic oesophagitis, eosinophilic gastritis, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, and more rare eosinophilic colitis. They are antigen (allergen) driven. When the blood test measuring anti-ttg antibodies is positive in absence of a positive ema test - which is more specific to celiac, this can also suggest food hypersensitivity (allergy). Usually delayed type allergy similar to celiac but not autoimmune if that makes sense. In this case the ttg antibodies are transient. Which happens. I’ve first hand experience. For info, evidence of villous atrophy too can be caused by food hypersensitivity. Not just by celiac disease. In Egid disorders the six food elimination diet, under a dietitian and gastroenterologist care, is the dietary protocol to figure out the culprit or culprits. Sometimes only two food elimination diet is used at first. The number one culprit is milk protein / dairy. Followed by wheat, eggs, soy, fish and seafood, and nuts. Most are only reactive to one food group or two. Most are only reactive to milk. Hope this is a helpful reply.

      Inconclusive results

      By Wends · Posted

      Wow, the system is crazy isn’t it? Maybe switch Doctors if you can. It’s surprising from what you’ve written it seems obvious it’s celiac disease. The “potential” diagnosis means celiac is developing and it basically just hasn’t done enough gut damage to be captured on the biopsy yet, and meet that “criteria” to satisfy the current system! Given the overwhelming evidence already - family history, positive ttg and ema. And your own experience and intuition which counts far more. And the labs being reproduced after gluten elimination and reintroduction- elimination and reintroduction diet is the gold standard too. Shame on the Doc and the system. What was the Marsh score? I’m guessing not 0 if it’s potential celiac. Meaning the autoimmune process has been triggered and started. Your daughter is obviously very healthy and her immune system is putting up a good fight. It can take years for the gut damage to build to a point where there’s overt symptoms and then a conclusive diagnosis, hence why many celiacs receive diagnosis later in life. You can prevent it. See the positive and the gift in that. Hopefully the gluten challenge confirms it, but if it doesn’t maybe get a second opinion?

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By cristiana · Posted

      @Gigi2025  Thank you for your interesting post.  Some of what you say chimes with something my gastroenterologist tells me - that he has clients who travel to France and find the same as you  - they will eat normal wheat baguette there without issue, for example.  His theory was he thought it might be to do with the locally sourced wheat being different to our own in the UK? But I have to say my own experience has been quite different. I have been to France twice since my diagnosis, and have been quite ill due to what was then (pre-2019)  poor labelling and cross-contamination issues.  My TTG test following my last visit was elevated - 'proof of the pudding', as we say in the UK!  It was not just a case of eating something like, say, shellfish, that disagreed with me - gluten was clearly an issue. I've also been to Italy to visit family a couple of times since my diagnosis.  I did not want to take any chances so kept to my gluten free diet, but whilst there what I did notice is that coeliacs are very well catered for in Italy, and many brands with the same ingredients in the UK are clearly marked on the front of their packaging that they are 'senza glutine'.  In the UK, you would have to find that information in the small print - or it puts people off buying it, so I am told!  So it seems to me the Italians are very coeliac aware - in fact, all children are, I believe, screened for coeliac disease at the age of 6.  That must mean, I guess, that many Italian coeliacs are actively avoiding gluten because, presumably, if they don't, they will fall ill?

      Thank you both very much. I’m pretty familiar with the various tests, and my older two girls with official dxs have even participated in research on other tests as well. I just felt overwhelmed and shocked that these recent results (which I found pretty dang conclusive after having scott clean labs just six months ago) would still be considered inconclusive. Doc said we could biopsy in another six weeks because my daughter was actually way more upset than I anticipated about the idea of eating it for years before doing another biopsy. It doesn’t hurt her, but she’s afraid of how it may be hurting her in ways she can’t feel. She’s currently eating mini wheats for breakfast, a sandwich with lunch, and a side of pasta along with every dinner, so I’m hoping we’re meeting that 10g benchmark mentioned in that second article!
